Needed proofreading done and Akari was supremely helpful. I was immediately relieved that I chose her for this, as it’s clear she is skillful in professional writing. She helped me articulate things I was struggling to even say in my own language. I recommend her if you need language advice for something important! I will definitely be requesting her again!

We had a great introductory conversation that I enjoyed very much. I'm looking forward to working with Akari-san to improve my overall Japanese speaking skills before an upcoming trip.

あかり先生は素晴らしい先生です。Akari-sensei is an exceptional teacher. Extremely knowledgeable, but also down to earth and patient. I appreciate the mix of textbook instruction with casual conversation. I also really respect her business hustle with her airbnb tours. And I hope to take one of her tours one day when she's not escaping from the Kyoto hot summers haha. Overall, make sure to book a lesson with her. 全体的に、本当に頭が良くてやさしい人です。

Akari is an amazing teacher! I'm so lucky to have found her. She is patient, kind, and professional, and her clever teaching skills are obvious.

Really enjoyed the experience and was going to learn to speak Japanese but the facilitator helped guide me more on travel (which was helpful). Booked another lesson learn Japanese but happy with the way this worked.
